[PATCH v2] ath10k: fix PMG by using AES-CMAC/IGTK software crypto

While testing with older supplicant, .drv_set_key() was failing due to
higher than ath10k firmware could handle key_index (WMI_MAX_KEY_INDEX == 3).

    broadcast key
nl80211: set_key failed; err=-22 Invalid argument)
wlan0: WPA: Failed to configure IGTK to the driver
wlan0: RSN: Failed to configure IGTK

In order to fix this case (PMF: AES-CMAC/IGTK) force the AES_CMAC cipher to
be handled by software.
